What Is It?
An advanced training in leading interactive Bible studies
in a small group setting. Limited to 9 people. This training is done at
our Pastors Conference and in any church that would like it.
Goals
- To provide personalized training for small group leaders
to lead interactive Bible study in a small group setting.
- To expose small group leaders to the breadth and depth
of Jesus' love as seen in the Gospels.
- To give a vision for small group leadership.
How Does The Training Work?
- Each participant will teach a lesson in 35 minutes. The
lesson will be assigned by e-mail after registration. Participants receive
the benefit of preparing a lesson, teaching a lesson, seeing 6-8 other
styles of leading, and observing an experienced teacher.
- Following each lesson, the leader will give each participant
a brief verbal evaluation to highlight their strengths and weaknesses.
By listening to one another's evaluation, everyone benefits.
- Interspersed throughout the training are brief teaching
times on vision for small groups, solving problems in interactive Bible
study, and tips for leading small groups.

Who Should Attend?

train other small group leaders.
How Does a Participant Prepare?

lesson you will teach. Then download the Small
Group Leader Training Instructions. These include general teaching
instructions and an Evaluation Form.
